COE offering grants for 2012 HDSA National Convention


Winner notification
The April 7 deadline to apply for the grants has passed. Winners will be notified no later than April 18.

Grant information
The UI HDSA COE is proud to announce we will be awarding up to five grants to help families attend the 2012 HDSA National Convention in Las Vegas, NV, June 8-10. The intention of these grants are to help those with a familial connection to Huntington disease attend the national convention whom otherwise might not financially be able to afford attending.

These grants were made possible thanks to the generous financial contribution from Mary Winnie and the UI Hospitals and Clinics Volunteer Services.

Grants will cover the cost of two convention registrations (up to $125 each) and two nights at the convention hotel ($120 per night plus taxes):


Convention hotel
Red Rock Resort, Casino & Spa
11011 W. Charleston Blvd.
Las Vegas, NV 89135

Criteria
Applicants may reside anywhere in the United States. However, preference will be given to residents of Iowa.
